New Form fields
Hi there. I am new to DBMAN and am just wondering what all has to be done to enter in new form fields for the database. I tried a little bit on my own but it didn't work. So I am wondering what all has to be done for a new set of form fields to work. And also, how many form feilds can be used without performance dropping. I am looking at about 75 different form feilds for each record. Thanks for any help you can give me.

JPDeni has an excellent tutorial available on her site at:

There is also a configurator which will help you to setup your fields.

Thanks for the plug for the Configurator, Lois! Smile

Regarding the number of fields: performance is based on the size of the .db file, not on the number of fields. Things start to slow down when the .db file reaches 1M in size.
